Valuable Seeds from Japan.

DR.. Latham has sent to Japan for some
of the roots of the mountain" bamboo
for propagation here. There are as many
kinds of bamboo as there are kinds of grass,
and they run in sizes from the little BAN
boo grass. hardly knee high, to that of the
noun ain" bamboo, which grows from
40 to 60 feet high. This variety will make
a beautiful grove, furnishing shade and
shelter from sweeping winds from one
seasons growth. Aside from this, it is
useful for great number of purposes.
Heretofore only the smaller varieties have
been imported into this State, and of course
only the smaller varieties grown.
The doctor is also importing some up
land rice seed. Perhaps it is not well
known that one-third of the rice of the
world is grown on uplands without irriga-
ton, the same as wheat or barley. and that
ii will grow under the same conditions re-
auired by those cereals. In Japan it yields
more per acre than wheat or barley. and in
market brings three times more money!
It will prove valuable addition to our
cereals.
He will also receive a quantity OF
"choyu" beans for seed. These beans
contain 40 per cent. of heterogeneous and 20
per cent. of oily matter-the same elements
of nutrition contained in beef or mutton.
The value of these beans will be seen by q
comparison with those of other countries,
which contain only l6 per cent. of nitro
gen and per cent of oil The German
Government introduced the cultivation of
these beans to that country to take the
place in part of the much higher-priced
meat diet.

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
MEETING OF THE BAR.

Report of the Committee Appointed to
Draft Resolutions.
A meeting of the Sacramento Bar was
presided over yesterday at 1:30 P. NJ, by
Judges Armstrong and Van Fleet, to re-
ceive the report of the committee appointed
at previous meeting to draft resolutions
of respect to the memory Of the late Chief
Justice Morrison. This committee con-
sisting of A. P Catlin, W. H. Beatty, C. 7.
Jones. John H. MeKune and Add. c. Hink-
son, submitted the following report, which
was received and adopted, and by the Court
ordered spread upon the minutes. 1t will
also be presented to the Supreme Court:
The Bar of Sacramento are affected
with profound sorrow by the death of Chief
Justice Robert F. Morrison. In his official
relations with us he always commanded
our affectionate regard and respect For
about eight years he was citizen of our
city. Here he first entered upon his pro-
fession, and was here first admitted to the
Bar, and was soon after chosen by the peo-
pie to the Office of District Attorney of
Sacramento county. He removed to larger
sphere for action, and was soon appreci-
ated in the metropolis Of the State, and
placed upon its highest bench. After ten
years of service in this position he was,
under the new Constitution, called by the
people to his last and most responsible
trust. In his personal character he was
without blemish or reproach, singularly
pure minded, even-tempered and unaf-
fected. In his official character he had a
good reputation and, as learned and i'm
partial Judge, ready, conscientious and
fearless in the discharge of great duties,
contributed large share to the high char
acter of our Supreme Court. He was yet
but little beyond the prime of life when
stricken by the disease against which he
struggled amid laborious duties, with pa
tience and resignation. He will be remem-
bered as a man eminent in the history of
California, and as one entitled to grateful
recognition for his public services, which
began, when boy, with a musket in his
hands, as private in a Western regiment
under General Taylor, from the Rio Grande
to Buena Vista, and after long, useful and
honorable career, ended, with harness
on, in the highest station in the gift of the
people of California

AN AWFUL SITUATION.
A Modern Society Drama In Two Acts
and Something Left Over.

A Modern Society Drama In Two Acts
and Something Left Over.
The first act opens in Sacramento resi-
dence near the center of the city, the
dramatis persona being the lady of the
house and female visitor, who are rally
ing around the sentiment that they Just
did wish some one with sense would get
charge of the weather, and then a person
could go out once in while to get the air, .
while party of children are enjoying
themselves in the scattering manner Pc
culiar to juveniles. Suddenly upon this
charming scene enters the heavy villain-a
mouse Enters with grim determination
written upon his brow, and liberty or death
in his eye-a pretty bad-looking mouse.
As he dashes around the room, as II IN lml-
tation of the graude entree at the circus,
the ladies grasp their precious skirts,
whisk them about their limbs, and jump
upon the chairs. and with grand chorus
of f" 0h-h-hl Goodness gracious r look
longingly toward the table and piano-so
near and yet so far Just then, when it
seemed so probable that the husbands Of
the ladies would soon be widowers, for any
woman can tell you that mouse is Just
awful, the little boy led charge against
the intruder whom the children pursued
with sticks and whatever else they could
lay their hands upon, and he was last seen
to run beneath the lounge. No one saw
him come out but when the lounge was
moved he did not appear, and the trem-
bling females finally came down from their
perches. The pleasure of the visitors call
was at an end, however, and, as she picked
her hat up from the lounge and put il on,
oh paI fbah aliaf thof she vrnnldnit
" get over it for month"
The second act shows the visiting lady in
the act of dropping in upon another
friend on the way home-but only for
moment, and she couldn't possibly stay
long enough to lay ash lie her hat. Men
ton was made of amusement matters, and
DR.. Fowler's lectures on chronology were
spoken of, especially that one in which he
declared love to be form of insanity.
Just then this visitor felt peculiar sensa-
ton beneath her hat, as of something press
ing against her head, or it might be a
bump" growing. A minute later she felt
it again, and afterwards it seemed to her
that the bump grew, and quivered and
squlrmed in such manner that II her hat
had not been pinned IN it would have
fallen. Becoming frightened and growing
paIe-feelng q strong desire TO get home
and learn the worst-she made hurried
departure. Arrived in her own room she
hastily removed her hat, and shrieked with
terror when the mouse-which had crawled
into the hat and concealed itself in the
folds of the Inning while it was lying on
the lounge in the house where the animal
first made its appearance-scamp down
the back of her neck, jumped to the floor
and ran beneath the bed. Though help
was summoned and the room carefully
searched, Mr.. Mouse could not be found.
He could scarcely have got out of the apart
tressed, not knowing when the lightning
may strike again.

A DAYS Huntine spoiled.

An.enthusiastic Sacramento sportsman
went over 10 Washington lake Sunday
morning TO enjoy little shooting, and
soon got into stand which promised good
sport. A duck came sailing along and was
bagged. Then a nice speckie- breasted
goose was brought down, falling about 100
yards from the shooter, who started to
wade after it, but before he had gone twice
his length he stepped into deep hole, and
got drowning wet, from head to toe, be-
fore he could crawl out. The next pro-

clothing had been treated in that manner
he observed a fire not far distant, appar-

warming his coffee at an early hour. Feel

hahille, and just as he got to it up sprang
| lady, member of fishing party, who had
fallen asleep near the fire, and was greatly
alarmed at seeing figure clothed in white
charging toward her with a bundle of
clothes in one hand and gun in the other.

say scat and disappeared behind a

as quickly as possible, though it made him

his way home with all haste. SO completely

Y. M. G. A. Musicale.

In spite of the numerous attractions else
where, there was an unusually large attend
ance at the musical reception rendered to
the young men of our city and their lady
friends, in the rooms of the Young Meas
Christian Association Hall, last evening,
the audience-room being crowded to suca
an extent that it was necessary to open the
doors connecting it and the reading-room,
which also was well filed. As usual, the
stage was tastefully decorated by the Flower
Committee, and the floral Welcome, -
above, made all feel at home. The pro-
gramme was excellent, and was given by
the choir of Westminster Presbyterian
Church, under the management of r. II.
Auerbach. Unfortunately, at the last mo-
ment the two ladies of the choir were pre-
vented from taking part in the programme
Their places, however were supplied by
Mrs. Carter, Misses L. and A. Kaibel and
Miss Daisy Kendrick. These ladies. at an
hours notice, acquitted themselves to the
pleasure of all present. Where all was
good, we cannot enter into de-
tails, but the exquisite violin solo
of Miss l.. Kaibel makes it a
source of regret that this talented young
lady is not heard more frequently in our
city. Vice-President G. o. Hayiord pre-
sided, and briefly referred in opening to
the work of the association. Following is
the programme Piano solo, Miss Annie
Aitken tenor song, ]. S. Graham; med
ley, f. Parsons and j. Sheehan vocal Sc
lection, Mrs. Addie Carter; duet, violin
and piano. Misses L. and A. Kaibel; bass
solo, R. H. Auerbach; reading, Miss Daisy
Kendrick; banjo trio D. G. Chambers, W
NJ. Campbell and ]. H. Wiseman.
AT the close it was announced that next
Monday evening lecture to young men
only on vital subject will be given by Dr..
Wizard.

Two Local Bills Passed

The bill amending the funded debt law
for Sacramento has been passed and goes
TO the Governor, 1t is wise measure, de-
manded by the best interests of the city,
and is conservative of economy without
any infringement upon the rights of credit
ors. Being desired by the people and
asked for by the city government, it will, of
course, receive the Governors approval.
The bill to make the City Of Sacramento
custodian of the mineral cabinet now in
the Capitol has passed It's proper place
ment of the collection, insures its retention
in the capital city, and its exposure, under
proper care, to thousands of people annual
ly, most of whom are strangers to the
State, who visit the city's Art Gallery We
entertain no doubt but that it will receive
the Governors approval. 1t certainly will
If the Executive is fully informed by the
friends of the Museum Association of the
purpose of the bill and the reasons that
led to its adoption by the Legislature.

Small War for Judge Buckley to De
termine the Merits of.

termine the Merits of.
Yesterday morning colored man named
Samuel Mars appeared at the station house
and complained that short time previ-
ously he had been cut with large pocket
knife by another colored man, named
William Grant, at the latter's premises, re-
ceiying wound on the ear and one on
each shoulder. He claimed that the knife
was used without provocation. He said
he had been living at Grants house. but
two or three weeks ago Grant ordered him
out and kept portion of his worldly
goods. Yesterday morning he went to
Grants house and asked for his property.
Grant at first pretended thar he did not
hear what was said, but, on the request be-
ing repeated, he assaulted Mars with his
knife, infiicting the wounds referred to
above. Not having any weapon, Mars dis
comfitted his enemy by butting him be-
tween the eyes, and was then allowed to go.
Officer Farren dispatched him to the City
Physicians Office, where the wounds,
which are not serious, were dressed.
Shortly after Mars left the station-house
Grant appeared there to get warrant for
Mars arrest for battery. His eyes were
swollen and discolored, showing the effect
of the butting, and one Of them had slight
cut beneath it. His nose had been bleed
ing freely, damaging his clothing. He
stated that Mars visited his premises, APP
parently to provoke trouble, and finally as
saulted him, giving him right and left
handlers with great hberality. He begged
him to desist, but when he would not and
seemed disposed to maui him as he would
a tough beefsteak, he took out his knife
and defended himself with it, He denied
that Mars had any property remaining at
the house, and generally contradicted the
statements of his opponent, whom he &C
cused of base ingratilude in misusing in
such manner man who had given him
shelter and home for long time when
he was in need of one.
Officer Farren rather unpleasantly sur
prised Grant when he explained that Mars,
on the first-come- first served principle had
got out warrant for his arrest and that
he would have TO be locked up in default
of bail, until the Court could decide who
was to blame for the difficulty. The off
Ger did the best he could for him, however,
procuring piece of steak and bandaging
his eve with it.

State Quarantine Against sma1l-Po,

an item appeared stating that DR.. 6. G
Tyrrell had received dispatch from the
President of the State Board of Health, or
dering him. to call the Board together for
the purpose of placing quarantine on Los
Angeles. In this the reporter is slightly in
error. The dispatch to call the Board to-

question of placing quarantine on our
southern border to prevent the further in
hux of smallpox from Mexico and Texas.
